For the first time ever, Bimmer Invasion teams up with US Drift Circuit, the Southeast’s only Pro-Am Formula Drift pipeline, to deliver the most action-packed INVASION in our history.

This isn’t a demo. This isn’t a parking-lot sideshow.

This is real drifting on a real circuit, built for drivers who want seat time and fans who want smoke, speed, and chaos done right.

Expect top-tier organization, structured run groups, and an elevated drift experience, plus appearances and full-send runs from Formula Drift stars like Adam LZ, Chelsea DeNofa, and more.

Whether you’re:

• A driver looking for a professionally run drift experience worth every dollar
• Or a spectator ready to witness BMW culture collide with elite drifting at full throttle

This INVASION raises the bar.

More action. More structure. More adrenaline.
